Nintendo did not upload [[Nintendo GameCube]] games to the Wii Virtual Console due to the fact that GameCube ISOs use 1.35 GB on the hard drive (the internal memory on the Wii is only 512 MB), and the Wii is backwards-compatible with all GameCube discs and most accessories, and to the Wii U Virtual Console for unknown reasons. [[Sega]] has provided the Wii and 3DS Virtual Console with [[wikipedia:Mega Drive|Sega Genesis/Mega Drive]], [[wikipedia:Sega Master System|Sega Master System]], and [[wikipedia:Sega Game Gear|Sega Game Gear]] games. | ||
